Typical Application
Big Foot Solar Fix-it Frame provides a quick to install
solution using 600mm x 600mm x 50mm, 40kg
paving slabs as ballast (not included). Utilising the
Fix-it Foot feet, this modular system is very versatile
with its installation options.
Solar Fix-it Frame is available in various sizes, angles
and heights. The frame can be adapted to suit almost
any installation.
Standard 10, 20 and 30 panel systems are
available from stock. Custom layouts to order.
The hot dipped galvanised steel framework
ensure maximum corrosion resistance for year
round weather protection.
Kit Includes

Wind Analysis
Big Foot Systems are currently using Computational
Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software to calculate site
specic wind load conditions.
Using the industry-leading ANSYS wind proling
program, analysis is run based on the solar panel
size, quantity, pitch and mass of the panel then
calculated to determine the ballast requirement for
the solar support system.
Big Foot Systems CFD modelling is based on
customer supplied information and available to
customers dependent upon scheme size.
Fix-it Foot
Big Foot Solar Fix-it Frame systems use UV stable
Fix-it Foot feet as a neat and tidy support solution.
Made from durable recycled rubber with a channel
moulded into the top face, allowing xing of
40mm x 40mm box section or strut.
